4-4-14 minor league recap: Aaron Judge Gets his First Professional Hit

AAA Scranton: Today’s game was rained out but they will make it up tomorrow. Donnie Collins reports that Chase Whitley and Graham Stoneburner are scheduled to be the starters. Both of these starters will probably end up in the pen, but I think they both could be useful relievers. If you were wondering why Alfredo Aceves hasn’t pitched yet, it’s because he is in extended spring training. He was pitching as a reliever all spring, so he has to gain some arm strength.

CF Mason Williams: 1-4, with one walk. He also threw out a runner going to third.

2B Robert Refsnyder: 0-5, with 2 k’s.

3B Rob Segedin: 0-3, with on BB.

C Gary Sanchez: 1-5, 1 double.

LF Ben Gamel: 0-3, 1 R, 1BB, 1K.

DH Zach Wilson, 2-4, 1 RBI, 1 K.

RF Taylor Dugas: 0-4.

1B Francisco Arica 2-4, 1 RBI

SS Ali Castillo: 2-4.

LHP Jeremy Bleich: 4 IP, 5 H, 5 ER, 1 BB, 7 k, 4/1 GB to FB Ratio. It will be interesting to see how long he lasts as a starter.

RHP Charley Short: 3 IP, 5 H, 2 ER, 0 BB, 3 K, ½ GB to FB Ratio. Only had 4.2 innings at this level last season. This is level will be a good test for him His career numbers have been good but he isn’t thought of as a good prospect.

RHP Branden Pinder: 2 IP, 2 H, 0 ER, 1 BB, 3 K. This is his second chance at the level, as he really failed here a year ago.
